I recently bought a new Lenovo laptop with an i5 12th gen processor and RTX 2050. However, yesterday I found that my login PIN was deleted, and my Microsoft email wasn't recognized anymore. To make things worse, someone tried to log into my Facebook and Reddit accounts. I'm really worried about logging back into my laptop. How could this have happened?

It sounds like a tough situation! First off, make sure you haven't shared your password or logged into any sketchy sites. That might have opened a door for hackers to get in. Also, consider changing your Microsoft password right away to secure your account.
Did you buy the laptop new or used? If it's used, did you do a factory reset or a clean install of Windows? That could be crucial for security.
I bought it new, but my niece tried something to activate Office for a lifetime, and I think that might be the issue.
